About Me
Background
I am a local Cape Cod artist with an extensive background in oils, watercolor and acrylics. I enjoy painting landscapes, floral, faux finishes and decorative art. As an art teacher in both adult education and private classes, I have attempted to share my knowledge and love of art with others. I am also available for custom commission work. One project that I particularly enjoyed was this mural I painted near Snow Goose gift shop in Harwich Port.
Local Affiliations
As a member of the Guild of Harwich Artists, I served as director of the Art Gallery for eight years and former president of the Guild. I am also director of Art in the Park, where guild artists display their works for sale each Monday through July and August at Doane Park in Harwich Port.

Learning Experiences
I continue to seek new techniques and ideas to improve my work and teaching abilities. Among the 100+ workshops I have attended around the country, I particularly enjoyed learning from these artists:
